Answer:

a) 138.6 m/s

b) 762.3 m

c) 122.3 m/s

d) 24.47

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+12.6\times 11\\\Rightarrow v=138.6 \ m/s

Velocity at the end of its upward acceleration is 138.6 m/s

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 12.6\times 11^2\\\Rightarrow s=762.3\ m

Maximum height the rocket reaches is 762.3 m

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as-u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 762.3-0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=122.3\ m/s

The velocity with which the rocket crashes to the Earth is 122.3 m/s

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 762.3=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{762.3\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=12.47\ s

Total time from launch to crash is 12.47+11 = 24.47 seconds

Importance of liquid pressure
trapecia [35]

Answer:

hope it helps...

Explanation:

Both the water in the ocean and the air in the atmosphere exert pressure because of their moving particles. ... This causes greater pressure. Denser fluids such as water exert more pressure than less dense fluids such as air. The particles of denser fluids are closer together, so there are more collisions in a given area.

10 N pushes a 10 kg crate to the right. Determine the acceleration of the crate.
oksano4ka [1.4K]
The rate of acceleration of the crate would be 1 m/s^2 because the equation for force is F=ma and when you plug in your numbers you get 10=10a so a=1

A ball is dropped off the roof of a tall building. If the ball reaches the ground in 8 seconds, how tall is the building, in met
Ghella [55]

Let <em>b</em> be the height of the building, and <em>y</em> the height of the ball at time <em>t</em>, given by

<em>y</em> = <em>b</em> - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²

where <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

It takes the ball 8 s to reach the ground, at which point <em>y</em> = 0, so that

0 = <em>b</em> - 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

<em>b</em> = 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

<em>b</em> = 313.6 m

What Occurs at divergent boundaries and creates new seafloor
lisabon 2012 [21]
Most active divergent plate boundaries occur between oceanic plates and exist as mid-oceanic ridges. Divergent boundaries also form volcanic islands which occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill.
